NO SHOCK THERE!! Dept. Of Justice Just Got Sued And Comey’s Leaker Might Be Shaking In His Shoes

Aug 6, 2018

The Department of Justice (DOJ) is being sued for what they failed to produce in regards to a professor who supposedly received memos from the James Comey, the former FBI Director who was dismissed by President Trump. One of the memos in question was evidently leaked to the New York Times and the Daily Caller News Foundation (DCNF) would like to get to the bottom of what’s going on. Comey might be a little bit nervous because the lawsuit apparently involves a friend of his, the Colombia professor Daniel Richman, the man who is supposedly the reported leaker. Comey and his allegedy pal Richman might both be a little bit nervous. Of course, that’s only if there’s something to hide, right? Do they have something to hide? That’s unknown and perhaps one of the reasons that the Daily Caller News Foundation is suing the DOJ.

The Cause of Action Institute, working for the DNCF, sued the DOJ because the FBI didn’t produce “any records related to Daniel Richman in response to the news organization’s April 25 Freedom of Information Act request.” If the DCNF is successful in obtaining further records about Richman is yet to be seen. It could go both ways in favor of the DCNF or it could be totally thrown out by a judge who has no interest in seeing justice served at the hands of information being released.

It’s believed that Richman is a friend of Comey’s and that Richman somehow got his hands on four memos that discussed Comey’s conversations with President Trump. The DNCF stated that two of those memos likely contained classified information and that Richman had leaked one memo, at least, to the New York Times – a publication that President Donald Trump often criticizes during his “fake news” rants.

The DCNF continued:
“Meanwhile, Comey, in a July 5, 2016 press conference, absolved then-Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton of any criminal activity in using her private server for government business while she served as secretary of state, saying that she was “extremely careless,” but not grossly negligent in using a private server for official government business. Gross negligence would constitute a federal offense tied to the mishandling of classified government secrets.

Comey hired Richman as a special government employee, or SGE, to conduct an assortment of personal duties for him, including the task of developing “talking points” about the bureau’s investigation of Clinton’s use of a private email server.

Richman served on “special projects” as an SGE for at least 19 months and “served at the pleasure of” Comey, FBI records show, according to Fox News.

Richman also gave multiple interviews to reporters between July 2015 and February 2017 defending Comey’s handling of the Clinton email case.

TheDCNF seeks all of Mr. Richman’s work product developed on behalf of the former FBI director. It also seeks “all communications between the bureau and Mr. Richman concerning his SGE work assignments, all intra-bureau communications about Mr. Richman and his assignments and activities, as well as all work product delivered to Director Comey or to others within the bureau.”

The suit was filed under FOIA before the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.”

It’s also reported that the DOJ and FBI have concealed what Richman was doing for Comey and others. Now people want to know what happened, what was going on, and what’s happening now.

This doesn’t seem to be the first time the DOJ was sued by Daily Caller. A previous article states they were sued last year as well. Guess who the lawsuit revolved around. That’s right – James Comey.

With all the nonsense going on swirling around Comey, it’s no wonder he was dismissed by President Trump in early May of 2017. Over a year later and we’re still hearing Comey’s name and it’s being thrown around in the midst of current lawsuits targeting the DOJ.

People need to keep a watchful eye on this lawsuit to see if any of the information regarding Comey, his friend, the memo’s, and anything else is released. Then pay attention to what the information leads to, if it’s actually released at all or the lawsuit is squashed by a judge.

The American people have a right to know what’s going on with their government, right?
